Musical

The students did such a great job at the concert! They worked really hard with Ms. Wyse and they really enjoyed the music!  I was so proud of them!
If you'd like to order a copy of Bugz Christmas, use the order form below and return it to school by December 2.

Reading

After the Thanksgiving holiday we will be reading our anchor text for this unit, How to Be a Good Friend.  
Vocabulary words will include:  complained, bothered, enemy, ruined, respect, considerate, disagree, and discouraged. 
Grammar focus of the week will be verbs and verb tenses.

Reading logs should be returned on Monday, December 1.  Our class voted to have a Stuffed Animal Day for everyone who returns a completed November reading log!  I'm hoping everyone can participate.  

Our next spelling test will be Fri. December 12.  

Math

We have been working on addition with 2 digit numbers, with and without regrouping.  The students have been doing fantastic!  We will continue to work on this important skill for the next few days. Our chapter test will be the first week of December.  Our next chapter will focus on Subtracting Two Digit Numbers.  

New Fast Facts:       7 + 2       7 + 3       7 + 4       7 + 5
                              7 + 6       7 + 7       7 + 8       7 + 9

Continue to practice math facts at home.  Students who are not fluent with math facts are slower to solve two digit problems.
